SCOTLAND: A Journey

At the edge of the cliffs I stopped and looked into the distance, I was overwhelmed by the beauty! I thought about how many people had stood here in front of me and felt so incredibly small and insignificant in this landscape...

an invitation to linger

Staying, pausing and feeling the peace and quiet has become difficult in today's hectic society. The race starts in the morning after getting up: commute to work, stand in a traffic jam or squeeze into the crowded subway, arrive at the office, have a quick coffee, meetings, deadlines and customers without time. Ina Echternach invites us to take a break with her series "an invitation to linger". We look through a window into her Polaroid worlds.

the woods are my home

Every exploration of the woods fascinates me anew. I let myself be guided by nature, see that something special in seemingly commonplace things, feel the magic of places and try to capture these moments of timelessness.

Instant film is the perfect medium for my approach. The polaroid wrests a picture away from that one moment.

Ina Echternach, born in 1970, lives and works in the nature park Siebengebirge, located in the heart of Europe.
